Insights, tutorials, and updates from the SciZone team. Learn about privacy-first development, web technologies, and the future of browser-based tools.
A technical deep-dive into building SciZone: compiling ImageMagick, libwebp, libheif and exiv2 to 13 MB of WebAssembly, adaptive PSNR/SSIM quality search, and a multi-worker pipeline that keeps the UI at 60fps.
Online converters quietly cap batches at 20–50 files. Here's how to convert 1000+ photos to WebP locally in your browser using WebAssembly — no cap, no upload, no signup.
Windows still can't open iPhone HEIC photos out of the box. Here's how to convert them in your browser — no codec, no paid app, no upload — while keeping EXIF and GPS intact.
AVIF compresses better. WebP is compatible with everything. Here's an honest 2026 comparison of browser support, file sizes, encoding speed and tooling — and our recommendation.
Gmail, Outlook and iCloud Mail all cap attachments at 20–25 MB. Here's how to shrink photo attachments to fit, without visible quality loss, without uploading to a third-party tool.
A side-by-side comparison of WebP and JPG in 2026, using real PSNR and SSIM measurements from our own conversion engine. When does switching actually pay off?
Why the world needed a converter that respects metadata, color profiles, and image uniqueness. Learn how we engineered it with WebAssembly and multi-threading.
